Quote:

Limbo

(Late Lat. limbus) a word of Teutonic derivation, meaning literally
"hem" or "border," as of a garment, or anything joined on (cf. Italian
lembo or English limb).

In theological usage the name is applied to (a) the temporary place or
state of the souls of the just who, although purified from sin, were
excluded from the beatific vision until Christ's triumphant ascension
into Heaven (the "limbus patrum"); or (b) to the permanent place or
state of those unbaptized children and others who, dying without
grievous personal sin, are excluded from the beatific vision on account
of original sin alone (the "limbus infantium" or "puerorum").

In literary usage the name is sometimes applied in a wider and more
general sense to any place or state of restraint, confinement, or
exclusion, and is practically equivalent to "prison" (see, e.g., Milton,
"Paradise Lost," III, 495; Butler, "Hudibras," part II, canto i, and
other English classics).

I don't know. It is possible that neither your installed package
base nor the packages in the repository have circular dependencies
but the combination of both has. This can happen when the dependency
structure changes.

Rebuilding from scratch is a way to avoid the scenario I described
above.
